Father

I was your first born
your eldest daughter
respected you
but now don`t feel I ought ta 

always looked up to you
put you on a pedestal
learnt who you really were
then I watched you fall

I felt alone and hurt
as you fell from grace
for I had loved you, father
now you`re gone without a trace

all you did was sprout lies
and turn your back on me
now I know there`s no trust
for I used my soul to see

I hold my head up high
for I've done nothing wrong
just wanted to be loved by you
and to feel that I belong

now I've turned my back on you
and look for love else where
for I will learn to smile again
with those who really care !


Even the ones we love and trust, they can hurt us so much....  :(
